1-tier, 7mm pitch, 150 arcsecond field AO relay design

This is an exploration of the idea of putting it all on one-tier, with a "big" (7mm pitch) woofer DM.

NOTE These have an error in one of the path lengths (tweeter to 4th OAP)

November 27, 2007, CORRECTED 1-tier, 7mm pitch, 150 arcsecond field AO relay design

This is an exploration of the idea of putting it all on one-tier, with a "big" (7mm pitch) woofer DM. Previous error is corrected.
